Through basic machining practice is beyond the scope you should understand:
- Machining operations
- Processing
- Cutting condition
- Working hold setup
- Blue printing reading, dimensioning
About Machine configuration
There are many forms of CNC turning centers such as:
+ Universal slant bed
+ Chucker slant bed
+ Twins spindle horizontal
+ Single spindle vertical
+ Milling/ turn machine
In all case X will be the diameter controlling axis and Z will be the length controlling axis
Because universal slant bed turning is the most popular turning center style , examples in this course stress this machine type , and universal slant bed turning center can perform all types of turning center can perform all types of turning applications: chucker work, shaft work, bar work,.
All turning center have certain programmable features:
- Turret index
- Spindle activation
- Feed rate
- Coolant
And some turning center has additional programmable features such as: jaw open/close, tailstock, positioning, door open and close
